May 2017

University of Washington Bothell connects with time-honored traditions in its commencement ceremony at 4 p.m. June 13 at Safeco Field in Seattle. This is the first year the ceremony is being held at the stadium. About 1,400 of the 2,000 Class of 2017 are expected to participate. (Photo is artist's conception.)

UW Bothell’s Trickfire Robotics team is competing in the NASA Robotic Mining Competition May 22-26 at the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida. The mission is to build a robot to mine ice granules on Mars for water people will need to survive on the Red Planet.

Students can find advice from six professionals in the UW Bothell First-Year and Pre-Major Program’s Academic Advising Office. But sometimes it helps to talk with an informed student – one of the five peer advisers in the Student Success Center.
